This thread is pure gold and my life is better for having clicked on it.
That said, I like the idea that they could be attractive or ugly depending on the player's preference. But, if I had to pick one, I think I have to go with ugly. Elves, humans, and tieflings are all sexy. Hell, even the halflings and dwarves have shockingly pretty options. We should have at least one race for the people that like playing scary, beastly characters. As long as the females are equally ugly/scary/beastly. I'm sick of the BS where the males are hideous but the females are still hot. It's not fair.
You’re very welcome. 😂
I hope we have a range of options. I generally play half-elves whenever I can, and I make them attractive but not gorgeous. I like playing half-orcs from time to time, so I’m interested in seeing what they will look like in this game. Generally with half-elves you know exactly what you are getting, but with half-orcs there tends to be a lot of divergence between looking more human or more orcish.
